Abstract
A processing device in a memory system receives a first read request from a host system, wherein the first read request is directed to first data stored at a first address in a block of the memory component. The processing device determines that the first address is located within a first region of the block and increments a read counter for the block by a default amount. The processing device further receives a second read request from the host system, wherein the second read request is directed to second data stored at a second address in a block of the memory component, determines that the second address is located within a second region of the block and increments the read counter for the block by a scaled amount.
